GGPoker history made, 4 new WSOPC champs and $17.9M in cash

The single most valuable day of the WSOP Super Circuit Online Series was always going to be an epic affair, but to say it didn’t disappoint would be an understatement; not only was it an truly historic day for the online poker community, but for GGPoker, too:

• Biggest tournament in GGPoker’s history – $12.3M prize pool
• $12.5 million in guaranteed prize pools smashed by +$5.2 million
• Four new WSOPC Champions crowned
• $10,000,000 GTD, $25K High Roller Championship

WSOPC Ring Event #8: HR Championship $10M GTD

505 players stumped up the $25,000 buy-in for event #8, generating a gargantuan $12.3M prize pool and meaning the top 3 players were each guaranteed a $1,000,000 payday. After an epic 15 hours of high stakes tournament action, we were down to our final two players: ‘800-522-4700‘ and ‘Patrick « Babu$hka » Leonard’ of the UK.

800-522-4700 would boss the Heads Up action, and despite a spirited and skilful display from ‘Patrick « Babu$hka » Leonard‘ he ultimately ran his A4 into pocket Kings and, with no help from the board, ‘800-522-4700’ was our new WSOPC High Roller Champion and just under $2.2M richer – Good Game!
